If the goal is to get rid of GNU make dependencies, I think that
fred.o greg.o ... zith.o : $(srcdir)/$*.c
might be the best that can done.

I'm not sure whether it would work or whether it is a GNU extension.

Pretty much anything that one can do with %'s
or with text functions are GNU extensions.

The next best might be listing every rule separately.
Doing so automatically should not be too difficult.
